August 22, 2017 Liza McNulty, Capital Improvement Project Manager City of Berkeley Finance Department/General Services Division 2180 Milvia Street, 3rd Floor Berkeley, CA 94704 Re: Berkeley Tuolumne Camp Dear Ms. McNulty and Selection Committee Members: The Berkeley Tuolumne Camp project is a major step in the re-creation of a place that generations of Berkeley families hold dear. This is an extraordinary opportunity to reestablish a special and memorable place tucked along the South Fork of the Tuolumne River that honors City legacy and meets camper expectations. It is also an extraordinary opportunity to demonstrate a commitment to ecological and resilient design and set the tone for the Camp’s future. The post-fire Berkeley Tuolumne Camp will be different than before. The drive east on Big Oak Flat and Hardin Flat Roads is different, the entry into camp is different, the location of places within the camp will be different. But the experience of camp, the feelings and memories don’t have to be. These can continue to be rich, layered with individual and collective experience, just as they’ve always been, following a rhythm and ritual in a beautiful natural setting with people you know and love. This is exactly the kind of opportunity that motivates us, combining our recent and highly relevant experience with a passion for creating meaningful places in beautiful natural settings. It is with great enthusiasm that Siegel & Strain Architects and our qualified team of consultants submit this proposal. Our practice has long been focused on the design of similar community-serving projects in comparably sensitive settings. We have the knowledge, experience and passion to help you successfully rebuild the Berkeley Tuolumne Camp to meet your needs, budget and schedule, and to exceed your expectations. We know the practical aspects of camp building, site improvement and utility design, and we know what it takes to build on remote, federally-owned sites. We also know how to create a rustic camp environment that is truly magical – a place where kids grow, where adults relax, where new memories are formed and where old memories find familiar repositories. As long-time Berkeley residents, we know how much this camp means to our community and the longing many have to get back to it as soon as possible. It would be our honor to work with the City of Berkeley on this important project, to offer our expertise to neighbors and friends to help rebuild this important place. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you need any additional information. We can be reached at 510-547-8092 or hsiegel@siegelstrain.com and susi@siegelstrain.com. Very truly yours,

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

FIRM INFORMATION

BIG CAMPS, LITTLE CAMPS, FAMILY CAMPS, SUMMER CAMPS

AGENCIES & STAKEHOLDERS

Siegel & Strain Architects (S&S) has a very deep portfolio of camp projects that are particularly relevant to your project, experience which began 20 years ago with our work with East Bay Regional Park District on Camp Arroyo in Livermore, and continues today with NatureBridge and the National Park Service on the National Environmental Science Center, a 17-building environmental education camp now under construction in Yosemite National Park, near your site. Other current camp clients include Camp Newman near Santa Rosa and Camp Hess Kramer in Malibu, which we describe in greater detail in the pages that follow.

We have had on-call contracts with the US Forest Service and the National Park Service, and we are currently working in National Parks throughout the region – Joshua Tree, Sequoia/Kings Canyon, Pinnacles, Yosemite, Redwoods, and the San Francisco Presidio – on projects located in historic and sensitive contexts. These projects typically have many stakeholders and reviewing agencies charged with protecting environmental and historic assets, fire and life safety, and voicing concerns of Native American communities. Several of our park project are non-profit organizations working in partnership with NPS, so the relationship that the City of Berkeley has with the Forest Service is one we are familiar with. While Liza McNulty and Patrick Miller will be the primary points of contact with the USFS, we understand the roles and responsibilities each entity has in the development of the Berkeley Tuolumne Camp, and how to structure our efforts and submittals accordingly. S&S and our civil engineers Provost & Pritchard have also worked on projects that require permits from US Fish & Wildlife and California Department of Fish & Wildlife for environmental compliance. Our Redwood Visitor Center project is undergoing both NEPA and CEQA review and is receiving close review because of nearby habitat of an endangered species. PlaceWorks has extensive CEQA and NEPA experience and may be a valuable resource in securing the necessary approvals.

Siegel & Strain Architects has designed camps of all sizes – from 150 to 700 campers and staff on sites ranging in size from 18 to 475-acres. We have designed and documented all manner of camp structures – arrival pavilions, dining halls, program/classroom structures, bathhouses, cabins, tent platforms, and maintenance facilities; outdoor camp spaces – amphitheaters and camp-fire circles, nature playgrounds and recreational areas, and informal gathering and seating areas; and all that connects them – trails, paths and bridges. Integration of infrastructure systems for circulation, water, wastewater, storm water, power and communications is no less critical in the creation of a wonderful and safe camp experience. Our team comes prepared with the knowledge and experience required to design and coordinate all aspects of a large camp project without any learning curve. BEST OF BOTH WORLDS – LOCALS WITH EXPERIENCE ON REMOTE PROJECTS

Siegel & Strain Architects Principals Henry Siegel, Larry Strain and Susi Marzuola are long-time Berkeley residents as are many of our proposed consultants; some, like planning and NEPA/CEQA consultant David Early of PlaceWorks, also happen to be Berkeley Tuolumne Camp campers. S&S’s Emeryville office is a short bike ride from City of Berkeley City Hall, facilitating easy in-person collaboration. More than half of our projects are on remote sites far from our office and often several hours’ drive from here or the nearest airport. We are expert in developing and organizing work plans that concentrate a great amount of effort into a few site visits during the design phases. We are also masters of web meetings with contractors and construction managers during construction. We have found that limiting our on-site presence to once or twice a month during construction compels contractors to be more organized and focused, allowing us to accomplish much more than might typically occur during weekly construction visits. We have worked with numerous clients and construction teams on short-duration construction windows and know how to schedule our work and the permitting process so that projects are shovel-­ ready the moment the ground is thawed enough for a backhoe, assuring that structures can be weathertight by midsummer and nearing completion before the winter. We are also fully aware that utilities and limitations on resources can drive site design, coordination efforts and construction schedules, and we plan accordingly. BERKELEY TUOLUMNE CAMP DESIGN #17-11131-C

Because so many of our projects are remote, many have been designed to meet Wildfire Urban Interface requirements. And because so many are camps, we know our way around California Building Code for camps as well as the America Camping Association Standards. S&S has worked across the counter with the City in Berkeley at your Permit Center and with Interwest Consulting Group, most recently on our Berkeley Hillel Center project which is just starting construction on Bancroft Avenue. In short, we are extremely familiar with the process, the codes and the agencies involved in environmental and fire/life safety compliance required for the Berkeley Tuolumne Camp project, positioning us to support the City’s project team in guiding the project through the necessary approval. CITY CLIENTS & COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

Siegel & Strain Architects has collaborated successfully with municipalities and non-profits around the Bay Area on community-serving libraries, schools, and community centers. In this very public realm, where budgets, perceptions and community engagement are paramount, we have earned a reputation for clear and steady communications, listening and creative problem-solving, and capitalizing on work already done. Between PlaceWorks and S&S, we have facilitated dozens of public engagement processes for design projects that resonate with their communities and that are financially viable for first costs, long-term operation, and revenue generation. Our extensive experience in building consensus among large and diverse stakeholder groups includes agencies, related non-profits, advocacy groups and concerned Native American tribes.

FIRM INFORMATION

A PLACE APART ON SENSITIVE SITES

Camps are not home, not school, not work. They are a place apart, intentional communities that are in most ways not part of the everyday world. If so designed, they can inspire and create community with a distinctly different sense of place that is rooted in its site. As largely expectation-free and safe environments, where younger campers have the freedom to explore and grow, and older campers can finally slow down and breathe, the design of the camp spaces they inhabit directly effects these changes of pace and mindset. In our work on camps and parks in rural settings, we have developed a deep appreciation for and an expertise around the design of structures and outdoor spaces that are immersed in their natural setting and that protect natural resources. We take clues from the setting, the lay of the land, the path of the sun to shape spaces, frame views and otherwise connect to the outdoors using a combination of careful siting and design, selection and detailing of natural and durable materials, and all-in-all doing more with less. We have extensive experience with national, state, and regional parks, whose mission is to connect people with sensitive sites, be they natural habitat or archeological, without harm to either. Through these efforts, and as demonstrated on the pages that follow, we have developed an extensive design vocabulary for rustic, straightforward structures, and for site improvements and pathways that do what they must, nothing more, simply and elegantly. MANAGEMENT STRATEGY

Team organization is key to supporting projects and client teams, especially those like the Berkeley Tuolumne Camp project where many critical aspects need to be developed simultaneously and on overlapping schedules to meet your proposed construction start in spring of 2019. For this we imagine organizing our effort into four major sub-projects: › The pre-design and as-was/as-was-to-code effort, including base-mapping documentation of existing conditions – surveying, hazardous tree studies and geotechnical studies. › Site and bridge design including environmental and accessibility compliance.

› Major building design, including the Dining Hall and River Hall, and all related environmental, fire/life safety and accessibility compliance › All the other structures, including cabins, tent cabins, restrooms and bathhouses, and all related environmental, fire/life safety and accessibility compliance. We have assembled a strong and capable consultant team with a track record of camp projects with S&S on similar sites. We have expanded this core team to include expertise specific to this project: › The Preview Group and TBS+ [check name], who have experience with insurance and FEMA claims and can assist with as-was-to-code documentation and the identification of every possible code deficiency in support of the best possible insurance settlement for the City. › PlaceWorks, who have both extensive CEQA and NEPA expertise, which may be very useful in securing approvals, and community engagement knowledge and skills for any stakeholder process that may arise during the design process.

SUSTAINABILITY & RESILIENCY

Siegel & Strain Architects is nationally recognized for pioneering ecologically focused design and research around three primary focus areas: › Site sensitive, climate-based and place-based design. › Design of buildings that incorporate and demonstrate ecological principles and reduce emissions. › Design excellence combined with cutting-edge sustainable strategies. Thinking more broadly and once we get past the urgency of the immediate next steps in rebuilding the Camp, we would like to engage the City’s project team in a much larger conversation about big picture sustainability issues such as resilience, passive survivability, and watershed and fire management. Our professional community includes many colleagues who can offer design guidance and develop management plans geared specifically towards protecting the Berkeley Tuolumne Camp long into its future.

3. PROPOSED APPROACH & SCOPE OF WORK

T

HE CITY OF BERKELEY prepared a comprehensive scope of work for the rebuilding of Berkeley Tuolumne Camp, and this scope, augmented by clarifying addenda and the site walk on August 9, provides a clear depiction of the many facets of this project. We realize that this project has a lot of moving parts and that to be successful, the design team will need to manage the project skillfully. Siegel & Strain has a track record of successfully managing projects that involve large stakeholder groups and complex approvals processes. We know that cost, quality of work, and schedule are intimately related and we rely on the completeness of documentation, clear goals and deliverables, timely flow of information, and clear and open communication. We believe that the best approach to this project will be to create a highly collaborative client/design team who have a common goal of moving the project forward while maintaining schedule and budget. 1.0 CODE ANALYSIS & COST ESTIMATES The purpose of this first task is to develop documentation on designs of the pre-existing buildings that have been updated to meet current code. This documentation will be the basis for negotiating insurance settlements, which will establish a major portion of the project construction budget. Siegel & Strain Architects and Provost & Pritchard Civil Engineers plan to put together separate teams within our offices to focus exclusively on the as-was-to-code documentation until it is completed. In our proposed schedule, we have Task 3, Basis of Design, starting after Tasks 1 and 2 are mostly complete. But if we have enough information and certainty about the budget to launch Task 3 early, we will have a different team available to start the Basis of Design well before Tasks 1 and 2 are completed. Members of these two teams will be combined in Task 6. We have included Code Consultant Steve Winkel of Preview Group to our team. Steve has worked on both the insurance side and the claimant side of fire insurance settlements, and will work together with the design team to make sure that building code issues are addressed thoroughly and properly documented. Steve will also work with his colleagues at TRB Plus Consulting, a plan check firm, to coordinate the review of site and building systems and make sure all required code upgrades have been included in the documentation. We believe that collectively we will provide a very high level of detail and nuance to our As-Was to Code Report which could be of great benefit to the City in settlement negotiations.

BERKELEY TUOLUMNE CAMP DESIGN #17-11131-C

PROPOSED APPROACH & SCOPE OF WORK

1.1 Code Analysis – Project Requirements The design team and our code consultants will review code requirements of all agencies based on what is shown in the as-was drawings and photographs, and develop plans and narratives reflecting the as-was-to-code model. We will compare the current Conceptual Design to what is shown in the As-Was Report to help clarify which changes are required by codes, and any code requirements which may be missing. We will document these code requirements in a tracking sheet and a report. Each project requirement will reference the code requirement and the reason for meeting this requirement. Deliverables will include plans and narratives that fill in information on materials and systems. Detailed project management will begin in this phase. We will develop an excel tracking sheet, similar to our typical tracking logs for codes or submittals, to document code requirements and costs. We can add columns for agency comments, code section, funding source, building (or system) and more, and we will be able to sort by any of these attributes. This tracking spreadsheet will also assist us in the preparation of detailed invoices to meet your requirements. 1.2 As-Was-to-Code Cost Estimate The design team will modify or redesign the as-was plans to reflect any additional code requirements discovered in Task 1.1. We imagine that this effort will be to a conceptual design level plus any additional information needed to develop a complete construction cost estimate, complete with floor plans and narratives to describe code required upgrades, materials and systems. If insurance or FEMA compliance requires more detailed documentation, we will review the specific requests with the City and their funders to set the level of detail documentation required. 2.0 DATA COLLECTION & BASE MAPPING The purpose of this task is to develop the baseline information the design team will need to move the design forward, including developing an understanding of planning decisions that have been made. 2.1 Planning to Design Transition Workshop This is the opportunity for the design tem to catch up with the important planning work that has already taken place. The design team will review all material available prior to the Workshop and come prepared to jump right in and to ask pertinent questions. After the Workshop, we will identify any information gaps and work with the City to fill these gaps. The design team will document the Workshop and summarize any issues that need to be resolved.

22 AUGUST 2017 | 9


PROPOSED APPROACH & SCOPE OF WORK

2.2 Hazardous Tree Survey Environmental Intelligence, LLC will complete this task. The timing for this will be coordinated with the development of the new Base Map. (See Task 2.4.) 2.3 Geotechnical Work Plan, Investigations & Report Kleinfelder will develop the geotechnical work plan and prepare the geotechnical reports. If key buildings or paving are relocated later in the design process, after geo-tech work has been completed, some additional investigation and reporting may be required. 2.4 Base Map Provost & Pritchard will be preparing the new base map, with detail as noted in the RFP. 3.0 BASIS OF DESIGN The purpose of this phase is to integrate code required upgrades with any voluntary upgrades, funding requirements, and any community design input to establish a final basis for the design of buildings and systems, and complete final conceptual designs, checking to make sure that these upgrades can be done within budget and on schedule. Siegel & Strain Architects will lead this effort and will coordinate the work of the consultant team. Review comments will be coordinated by S&S and distributed accordingly to the appropriate team member. We will combine these responses on the City’s tracking log, a process we are very familiar with given our experience with NPS and their review protocol. 3.1 Basis of Design This task requires more discussion with the City to develop a more specific scope, but for the purposes of our proposal, we imagine that we would be working with the Planning Consultant and/ or an Advisory (or Client or Design) Committee composed of the critical stakeholders so that we can further understand and document desired programmatic changes to as-was facilities. Based on programmatic input, we would then develop alternative designs to incorporate these changes, provide cost information for the proposed changes, and work with the you to evaluate and choose the preferred alternative. We imagine that these alternatives would apply to all building types, and, to a lesser degree, to site design and site systems and infrastructure. Given our limited knowledge of the project, it is difficult to estimate the number of alternatives and iterations we will be developing for the Basis of Design. We also need to better understand the level of documentation needed to meet oversight requirements, develop costs, and help you make these decisions. Given Task 3.2, we imagine that deliverables for alternatives would be developed to a conceptual design level with supporting narrative to provide additional detail for cost estimating, a process we typically go through for many of our Camp and National Park projects and a level of detail that usually meets insurance company requirements. We will work with you to establish an appropriate level of documentation. 10 | 22 AUGUST 2017

3.2 Revised Conceptual Design Plan We would prepare a final conceptual design and report to memorialize the process to date and incorporate all agreed upon changes. This would be reviewed by stakeholders prior to finalization as noted. We suggest that part of this process include the development of additive or deductive alternates that could be considered as budget allows. While we realize that community outreach and design are not part of the scope of work, we do anticipate that this project will have considerable public scrutiny. We would not be surprised if informal presentations to concerned community or advocacy groups and formal presentations to Agencies and City Commissions eventually become part of the scope. With that in mind, we have added the Berkeley firm PlaceWorks to our team for their skill in negotiating any unanticipated stakeholder processes that may be required, and also for assistance with environmental compliance (Task 4). We will continue to update our tracking spreadsheets, layering in information and costs on voluntary upgrades to buildings and ­systems. 4.0 Environmental / Permitting Support Both CEQA and NEPA compliance are required to meet City and Forest Service requirements. The design team will assist the compliance team during this task by providing any needed quantities, or design alternative sketches, something we have done this for numerous projects. Environmental Compliance This task can be divided into to two distinct phases, the first of which is environmental compliance. This project, like our Redwood Visitor Center project, requires both NEPA and CEQA compliance. Our work typically occurs at a conceptual or schematic design level with the design team providing information (such as cut/fill information) to the compliance team. We understand that we may have to assist with revisions to compliance documents later in the design process in order to stay on schedule. SIEGEL & STRAIN ARCHITECTS PROPOSAL


PROPOSED APPROACH & SCOPE OF WORK

We have reviewed some of the reports you have already developed in support of this effort. We understand that the City’s separate compliance team working with the Planning Consultant will be responsible for assembling the final environmental compliance documentation. The design team would provide technical and design information for the compliance team as we have done for numerous NPS projects. This will, in some cases, require the design to be advanced enough so that the information for compliance can be developed; we anticipate that parts of this task cannot be completed until conceptual design is nearly completed. As noted above and if necessary, we would ask PlaceWorks to provide additional NEPA/ CEQA expertise should the City require it. We anticipate that the larger design team issues regarding compliance will likely be civil engineering issues such as hydrological design issues within the flood plain rather than building design issues. Building and other construction permits The design team will also be directly involved with building permitting issues – building and health department submittals and the like – that are applied for when construction documents are complete. We would work directly with the permitting agencies to resolve any red-lined issues and comments, though we imagine that many of these will have been anticipated by our work in Task 1. 5.0 STAKEHOLDER COORDINATION / PUBLIC ASSISTANCE GRANT REQUIREMENTS For this task, the design team will meet with all participating agencies and stakeholders to resolve any permitting or design issues. 5.1 Meetings Our fee estimate provides for the meetings specified. As the number of meetings that will be required is unpredictable, we recommend developing an allowance fee per meeting, or an allowance fund to cover any additional required meetings. This allowance per meeting might vary depending on the type of meetings and which design team members need to attend. The most critical attendees for insurance or agency related meetings are likely to be some combination of architects, civil engineers, cost estimator, and code or compliance specialists.

Typically, we would expect to still be working with a Design Committee or other client representative to refine the design during the 30% design task. We would expect to refine design decisions during this task and to discuss these refinements with the client. We would work with the City to better understand how this process will work. 7.0 CONSTRUCTION SUPPORT SERVICES We normally are engaged for construction support service for all projects, and have a track record of working successfully with contractors to complete both public and private projects. For most of our long-distance projects, we expect to visit the site monthly and to have weekly web meetings between site visits. We typically respond to RFI’s, review submittals and proposed change orders, and provide clarifications when needed. It is worth noting that most professional liability insurance requires some level of construction support services from the design team (since design team members cannot be responsible for changes made during construction that they are not aware of) and that the building code now requires field review at several key points during construction by the structural engineer, and review for Energy Code compliance.

5.2 Invoicing & Reporting The design team understands that we will be providing an unusually high level of detail in our invoices throughout the project. 6.0 DETAILED DESIGN PLANS, SPECIFICATIONS & COST ESTIMATES Task 6 takes us from conceptual design to submission of final, conformed construction documents, and support during the bid phase of the project, with milestones and review as noted in the RFP. This is a straightforward and predictable design documentation development process.

FEE PROPOSAL 5. FEE PROPOSAL

T

he attached fee spreadsheet breaks down the estimated fee by discipline and staffing level and lists hours by task. Federal billing rates have been used. Our fee estimate generally follows your scope of work, but was created without any direct discussion with you about the many questions we have about the scope. Therefore we have made assumptions along the way. We would welcome the opportunity to discuss these assumptions in greater detail with you and to adjust our scope and fee accordingly. We have excluded: › Presentation materials, including materials boards and 3D renderings; › Creation or updating of (spatial) programming documents; › A cost estimate for the bid set; › Modeling of daylighting, energy, etc., beyond what is required for code; › Fundamental commissioning. These exclusions do not cover the other assumptions we have made regarding, for example, the number of alternatives needed for design and compliance that are reflected in the estimate and schedule. Rather than trying to assess the number of alternatives we are likely to need for any task – difficult to do given what we know – our fee and scope assumptions are directly related to how long we expect each task to take. Again, we welcome additional discussion and clarification with you and are prepared to adjust our scope and fee after further discussion. We have also added some specialized consultants to our team – specifically consultants for assistance with “as-was to code” documentation and assistance with environmental compliance and local (Berkeley) stakeholder meetings – not required by your scope. We believe these additional consultants add value to the services we can provide for the City. We are happy to discuss the applicability and need for their services with you.

7. RELEVANT EXPERIENCE

RELEVANT EXPERIENCE

SIEGEL & STRAIN ARCHITECTS has a long track record of working on camps and retreat centers, beginning with Camp Arroyo in Livermore nearly 20 years ago. Camp Arroyo was designed to teach environmental principles. The camp buildings are part of the camp curriculum: each illustrates different sustainable construction technologies. The dining hall was built with straw bale construction, the bathhouses are made from stabilized earth, and the cabins are efficiently framed in FSC-certified wood. Many other green strategies are employed including: passive and energy efficient design; solar collectors for water and space heating; durable, resource efficient and recycled content building materials, and water conservation. Storm water is dissipated on site. Siegel & Strain masterplanned the site, designed all the buildings, and coordinated the site utility design. www.ebparks.org/activities/daycamps/parks_camp_arroyo Since then we have worked on many other camp and retreat centers including: Camp Arroyo bathhouses

The National Environmental Science Center (NESC) in Yosemite National Park. This 17-building camp complex includes a new dining hall, classroom building, administration building, cabins, bathhouses and more. The S&S team – the same team we are proposing for your project -- worked hand-in-hand with the National Park Service and Park Partner (and environmental educator) NatureBridge to master plan the site and design the buildings and site systems. The camp is designed following PassivHaus principles to achieve Net-Zero Energy and LEED Platinum. Building design follows Yosemite’s rustic design guidelines (and a host of other environmental requirements) and the first phase of construction is nearing completion. https://naturebridge.org/nesc

National Environmental Science Center cabins

We have completed projects costing nearly $20 million dollars for Camp Newman, near Santa Rosa, CA. Camp water, wastewater, storm drainage, and electrical systems have been rebuilt, along with ten new buildings – nine camper lodges and an administration / infirmary building. We are currently designing a new 700-seat dining hall, which will complete the first phase of a master plan started nearly ten years ago. https://campnewman.org

Camp Newman camper lodges

Our master plan for the Wilshire Boulevard Temple Camps (two camps on one site) in Malibu provides a vision for renewed facilities that balance the Camps’ desires and expanding needs with the regulatory and environmental challenges of this sensitive site, a riparian environment within coastal zone. https://www.wbtcamps.org OMSI Outdoors provides outdoor education and summer camp programs to youth throughout Oregon. The Coastal Discovery Center at Camp Gray is a 150-bunk, 20-acre science camp and living laboratory to serve 90,000 children and families over the next 20 years. Programming at the CDC includes year-round residential camps for children and families taught by professional educators in the rich learning environment of Oregon’s Central Coast. Siegel & Strain was design architect for master planning and design of the outdoor exploration and educational facility with overnight lodging, dining, teaching spaces and their necessary support for 100-150 children and families. The project is designed to minimize energy and water use, utilize local, durable materials, and to fit into the coastal setting. https://omsi.edu/story/coastal-discovery-center

Camp Newman, located on a hilly 475-acre site north of Santa Rosa, is a year-round camp that hosts up to 700 campers and staff in the summer and a wide variety of retreat groups during the school year. The Union for Reform Judaism (URJ) acquired the site in 1990, and along with it a collection of outdated buildings and infrastructure built by the Merchant Marines in the 1950s. Siegel & Strain facilitated a collaborative design process with active participation by Camp Newman staff, campers and URJ Board members. The resulting master plan became the basis for a new capital campaign to update building and infrastructure over a twenty-year period. The

master plan establishes camper-centered criteria for buildings and landscapes and sets ambitious sustainability goals for energy efficiency and use of renewable resources. The camp will become more pedestrian oriented. Landscaping will increase and pavement will be reduced over time. Siegel & Strain designed a new 700-seat dining hall, an adjacent amphitheater for 400, a new administration/infirmary building, and nine new camper lodges that will house nearly 300 campers and staff. All site utilities have been upgraded or replaced, and five of the lodges have been completed. The Admin/Infirmary building and four new lodges are in progress.

DESCRIPTION

Camp Arroyo is a state-of-the-art environmental education camp. Students study environmental science during the school year, and in the summer, the camp serves children with life-threatening illnesses. The overarching design approach was to use the entire camp as an educational tool, and to provide a healthful, restorative atmosphere. New buildings, playing fields, organic gardens and service areas are sited on previously impacted areas of the site, leaving native areas for study and recreation. Storm water is collected in a series of swales and returned to the water table and all plantings were selected to minimize water use. Each building type presents a different approach to resource-efficient construction: › The bathhouses are constructed with earth

taken from the site, demonstrating that the buildings grow from place. These durable, stabilized earth walls are combined with a roof structure that is made with wood from sustainably managed forests and durable metal roofing. The open air structures house restrooms, showers and changing rooms for the adjacent swimming pool.

› The dining hall demonstrates resource efficiency

using straw bale construction. The 7,600 sf building seats 200, and features a load-bearing steel frame with straw bale infill, wood from sustainably managed forests, renewable finish materials such as bamboo, wheat straw, and sunflower panels, and recycled products such as recycled glass countertops and cellulose insulation. › The cabins demonstrate techniques for optimiz-

ing wood frame construction. Each 1440 sf building sleeps 24 campers and features efficient framing techniques, wood from sustainably managed forests, durable materials and recycled products. The cabin interiors are paneled with wheat straw particleboard for durability and rustic appearance. The deeply colored concrete floors double as a radiant heating system. The design promotes energy efficiency using passive and active means. Passive means include south-facing sunrooms, high windows for natural ventilation, careful sun shading and insulation made from recycled newspaper. Active measures include active solar water heating, non-compressor cooling and efficient lighting.

Wilshire Boulevard Temple Camps (WBTC) are located on an extraordinary 187-acre oceanfront site near Malibu, California. Camp Hess Kramer occupies a meandering riparian canyon that ends at the beach; Gindling Hilltop Camp sits at the highpoint of the site and offers views up and down the Pacific coast. Siegel & Strain worked with WBTC Master Plan Committee to develop a vision for renewal that balances the camps’ desires and expanding needs with the challenges of a highly constrained physical and regulatory environment. The master plan, developed in honor of the camps’ 60th anniversary, invokes the Jewish concept of tikkun olam, or repairing the world, by planning for the camps’ future needs while repairing and improving the site’s natural systems through good stewardship, site sensitive design, creek restoration, and a return to a camper-centric environment. Cars will be

excluded from the center of the camps, new walking trails established, and new outdoor gathering spaces developed throughout the camp property. The center of Camp Hess Kramer is reimagined with a new 450-seat dining hall, new and renovated program buildings, a new conference center, a wide variety of outdoor gathering spaces, and improved connections to Little Sycamore Canyon Creek and the surrounding hillside. The design team facilitated a highly participatory and collaborative design process that included board members, staff, camp alumni and a broad cross section of camp stakeholders to create a plan that reflects the camps’ values and aspirations now and for the future. The design of a new Dining Hall is now underway.

The Redwood National and State Parks welcome over 100,000 visitors per year at the Kuchel Visitor Center. Save the Redwoods League is working with the National Park Service to design a new, expanded visitor center on a site two-miles inland from the existing facility. The Visitor Center will then gift it to the National Park Service. The new visitor center will serve as the gateway to the Parks, a place to learn about the redwoods, forests and streams, the wildlife and their habitats, the cultural history of the site and the vicinity, and the people of the redwoods. The Visitor Center, located on the 25-acre Orick Mill site only a few miles from the Pacific coastline, will house interpretive exhibits, administrative offic-

es, and wayfinding with site amenities to include an amphitheater, trailheads and picnic areas. The project will be closely coordinated with a major site restoration effort. The new visitor center will capture panoramic views of old growth redwoods and the Prairie Creek watershed. Visitors will be able to walk to interpretive paths and trailheads directly from the visitor center, access the regional bike trail, as well as catch the park shuttle to access other park attractions. The facility will offer a range of experiences for diverse user groups.

The Siegel & Strain team has been developing designs for four comfort stations located in Yosemite Valley. Each comfort station responds to its particular site conditions to create a better sense of arrival for Valley visitors. Picnic areas, interpretive exhibits, and wayfinding are integrated with the design at each location. The buildings range in size from 1,350 sf to 2,150 sf and vary in configuration, containing men’s and women’s restrooms, family restrooms, jani-

tor’s closets, and, at the Camp 4 Campground, shower facilities and dishwashing. For the updated site plan for Yosemite Lodge, the Siegel & Strain design team worked closely with the Park to resolve existing car, bus, and pedestrian conflicts and envision a scheme that separates these conflicted uses while creating a stronger sense of arrival for visitors and a clear pedestrian promenade towards Yosemite Falls.

Bishop O’Dowd High School’s Center for Environmental Studies (CES) is home to the school’s environmental science and engineering program. Designed to complement the Living Lab—a 4.5-acre hillside restoration site, ecological study area, and wildlife habitat at the perimeter of the campus—a new building and landscape elements tie the Living Lab to the campus core. The new academic building features two large laboratory classrooms, a faculty office and prep space, restrooms and storage. Sustainable building systems and materials—locally sourced, renewable building materials; roof-mounted photovoltaic panels for renewable power; on-site collection and treatment of storm water, and rainwater

harvesting—are showcased and easily accessed to serve as teaching tools. The roof extends well beyond the building envelope to shelter variously-sized patios accessible from the classrooms. The largest covered space has a food prep sink for the Living Lab vegetable garden and functions as an outdoor classroom or a shelter for group gatherings. Sliding barn doors and pivoting shading devices at the west end of this outdoor room can be opened up to panoramic views of the Bay or modulated to control light and wind. Beyond the operable wall, wide steps open onto an informal amphitheater.

The architects and the design team developed a new master plan for this 11-acre site together through a series of public workshops that focused on the Town Center program, site opportunities and constraints, and sustainable design goals. This rich and positive exchange of information resulted in the development of a center rooted in what is most valued by the community. A new Library, Town Hall and Community Hall frame a new town green. The site includes new soccer and baseball fields, tennis courts, open parkland, a maintenance facility, parking, and the daylighting of a culverted creek. This LEED Platinum project made extensive use of salvaged materials, daylighting, natural ventilation, efficient building systems and a 76 kw photovoltaic array to create comfortable, healthy buildings and a significantly reduced environmental footprint.

PROVOST & PRITCHARD CONSULTING would be responsible for civil engineering and surveying

including: base mapping, grading and storm water design, waste water system design, and water system design. Rod McNeely led a very similar effort for the National Environmental Science Center (NESC) project in Yosemite National Park. He would be the lead Principal for this project as well. Provost & Pritchard has worked with us on other similar National Park Service and US Forest Service projects, and has a long track record of experience working in the Sierras.

ROYSTON, HANAMOTO, ALLEY & ABEY (RHAA) brings extensive experience in the design of visi-

tor facilities at Yosemite National Park with 18 completed projects over the last two decades. RHAA was our landscape architect for the NESC project, and Doug Nelson, the principal for that project, would serve in that role for the Berkeley Tuolumne Camp project. In addition to the NESC project, Doug has a long history of projects in Yosemite National Park and in other national parks, has worked with both P&P and S&S on US Forest Service projects, and has a deep understanding of rustic design for camps and parks.

In 1968, PROVOST & PRITCHARD CONSULTING GROUP began a tradition of engineering excellence in the San Joaquin Valley. Over the course of 49 years, Provost & Pritchard has grown in size, services offered, and geography with more than 150 employees staffing seven offices throughout California. Our staff is diverse in their specialties, including civil and agricultural engineers, hydrogeologists, environmental specialists, planners, land surveyors, construction managers and field representatives, and support personnel. National Environmental Science Center, Yosemite National Park, California The Siegel & Strain/ Provost & Pritchard team designed a new educational center at Henness Ridge in Yosemite National Park. The new facilities will accommodate 224 students and 20 staff and include living and non-living space. Living space consists of eight student cabins (for 224 students), one instructor bunkhouse (for 16 instructors), and a four-unit staff apartment building (for four staff) on 15,518 square feet. Non-living space buildings consist of an arrival shelter, dining hall/kitchen, two bathhouses, classroom, staff preparation space and office, maintenance building, and a National Park Service (NPS) fire house on 21,470 square feet. Other non-living space includes an outdoor amphitheater, solar array, water tanks, and parking lot on 45,164 square feet. Developed areas have been consolidated during the design process to minimize the campus footprint with the total new campus/fire house footprint, including open space within the campus area, being approximately 16 acres. A complete infrastructure system had to be installed at Henness Ridge including water storage, wastewater treatment and disposal, electricity, a solar array, geothermal heat pump, propane tank, and an emergency generator. The state-of-the-art sustainable and “green” technologies designed to minimize impacts on natural resources were consistent with the NPS’s Guiding Principles of Sustainable Design. The campus will act as a teaching instrument for instructors to introduce sustainable and environmentally friendly practices. Central to the concept of sustainable development is the idea that all decisions—from initial concept through design, construction, and operation— are evaluated in light of the principles of natural and cultural conservation. Extensive energy modeling and analysis of the materials and assemblies led to a project that is projected to be net-zero energy; to save sixty percent over standard water use; and to minimize material waste through factory construction. This project will seek a LEED Platinum rating.

Glacier Point

Yosemite National Park, California RHAA led a multidisciplinary team for a challenging site restoration at Glacier Point, one of Yosemite’s top attractions. Glacier Point is a place of exceptional vistas, but the area near Glacier Point, which includes the former site of a hotel, had become degraded and barren under the pressures of 400,000 visitors a year. The challenge was to redesign the site and facilities to handle the large number of visitors and restore native vegetation, providing a proper setting for the spectacular vistas. A new view terrace and amphitheater provide viewing opportunities, informal seating and a place for interpretive programs. The design goal of the project was to meld visitor facilities with the site’s beauty so that the design appears to emerge out of the natural landscape.

Happy Isles Area Plan

Yosemite National Park, California Happy Isles is one the most popular trailheads and natural attractions in Yosemite Valley where the Merced River courses around two islands. In July of 1996, a massive slab of granite fell from the cliff above creating a windblast that devastated an area of about 11 acres, centered on the nature center. Thousands of trees, many up to a hundred feet tall, crashed to the ground, destroying or damaging trails, bridges, fences, utilities and a concession stand. RHAA was commissioned by The Yosemite Conservancy to assist the National Park Service in planning for the re-opening of the area within a year of the rock fall. The project included an area master plan and construction documents to implement the recommendations, consisting of improved trails and circulation, accessibility upgrades, a new bridge, and interpretive exhibits.

PARTNER

David has a wealth of experience in designing innovative structural systems. He believes the key to successful projects is striving to create holistic designs that optimize the architectural program and structural performance while controlling construction costs. To these ends, his designs are often inventive and technically ingenious, at the forefront of high-performance seismic and sustainable design. This approach was best made evident during David’s role as the technical director for FEMA P807: Guidelines for the Seismic Retrofit of Weak-Story Multi-unit Wood-Framed Structures. His out-of-the-box thinking resulted in a comprehensive design methodology that yields highperformance retrofits at a low-cost, thus solving one of structural engineering’s most vexing class of problems. David was also tasked by FEMA to lead the development of the Graphic Dashboard as part of FEMA P-58 outreach to explain the performance-based seismic design to engineers and other stakeholders. David received his undergraduate and master’s degrees from UC Berkeley. He has lectured at the engineering departments of UC Berkeley and Stanford University, and at the Lean Construction Institute. In 1998 David was honored with SEAONC’s H.J. Brunier Award for OutstandEDUCATION

PROPOSED TEAM QUALIFICATIONS BLUE FOREST ENGINEERING MECHANICAL & PLUMBING ENGINEERING

Firm Background BLUE FOREST ENGINEERING was founded in 2017 by Tyler Bradshaw in Oakland, CA. Despite 11+ years completing many groundbreaking sustainable projects and becoming a partner at his last firm, Tyler wanted to work within a more “purpose driven” company, something different from the “mission driven” and “profit first” model common in most larger engineering firms. That purpose is to make the sustainable building design available to everyone, every project and make it easily replicable by others. This is the “why” of this firm and what motivates him to rise in the morning with energy and enthusiasm to tackle the unique challenges that are inherent in doing something special and worthwhile in our work and life in general. One major service advantage that Blue Forest’s size and age provides is dedicated and personal attention to every aspect of this project. Because of this, Tyler Bradshaw has committed to be the major contributor to the engineering services provided and remain the main point of contact for this project from kick-off to close-out. Blue Forest Engineering provides full service HVAC and Plumbing design services, energy modeling as well as many other mechanical and energy consulting services listed below.

Approach Blue Forest Engineering is unique from other M&P firms in that it seeks solutions to building systems designs that identify and leverage synergistic opportunities between building systems, building envelope and natural site resources. For example, our first task on the HVAC design is work towards reduce the loads first through smart collaboration with the architects early in the project while the envelope & & programming elements are still in development and easy to modify. Most systems design approach rely primarily on the application of proven off the shelf components but we consider emerging technologies where it makes sense to do so. We know that simple, low technology approaches and systems are those most likely to work properly not just the first year but more importantly for the life of the building and will require less owner intervention to do so. This is not a new idea, just one forgotten by many building engineers who rely on increasingly complex technologies as more become available every year. A paraphrased quote by Albert Einstein best sums our approach, “Everything should be as simple as possible, but no simpler.”

Relevant experience During his time as a Partner and Principal at the firm Integral Group, Tyler Bradshaw led as Principal in Charge nearly all the NPS projects within that firm, most of which were joint projects with Siegel & Strain Architects. Many of these projects are shown in Tyler’s resume.
